For the Beef

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Sear the Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and brown the chuck roast chunks for 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the beef to the slow cooker.
  2. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the seared beef in the slow cooker. Add garlic butter and pour in broth, ensuring it covers the beef.
  3. Add Potatoes: Cut potatoes into chunks and add half to the slow cooker. If firmer potatoes are desired, wait and add the remaining half during the last 2 hours of cooking.
  4. Cook It Low and Slow: Set the slow cooker to LOW for 7-8 hours or HIGH for 4-5 hours. Check for doneness at the end; beef should be fork-tender and reach 200°F.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Plate the mixture and drizzle with sauce from the slow cooker. Sprinkle chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Searing beef enhances flavor. Add potatoes halfway through to avoid them becoming too soft. Adjust broth if too salty. Prep ingredients in advance for easy cooking.
